"Google is not a conventional company. We do not【C1】______to become one," wrote Larry Page and Sergey Brin, the search firm’s founders, in a letter to investors ahead of its stockmarket flotation in 2004. Since then, Google has burnished its reputation【C2】______one of the quirkiest companies on the planet. This year alone it has【C3】______eyebrows by taking a stake in a wind-energy project off the east coast of America and by testing self-driving cars, which have already【C4】______over 140,000 miles (225,000km) on the country’s roads.
Google has been able to【C5】______such flights of fancy【C6】______its amazingly successful online-search business. This has【C7】______handsome returns for the firm’s investors, who have seen the company【C8】______itself in the space of a mere 12 years from a tiny start-up into a behemoth with a $180 billion market capitalisation that sprawls【C9】______a vast headquarters in Silicon Valley known as the Googleplex. Google【C10】______stretches across the web like a giant spider, with a leg in everything from online search and e-mail to social networking and web-based software applications, or apps.
All this has turned Google into a force to be reckoned with.【C11】______now the champion of the unorthodox is faced with two conventional business challenges. The first【C12】______placating regulators, who fret that it may be abusing its considerable【C13】______. On November 30th the European Union【C14】______a formal investigation into claims that Google has been【C15】______search results to give an unfair advantage to its own services—a charge the firm vigorously【C16】______. The other challenge facing Google is how to find new sources of growth.【C17】______all the experiments it has launched, the firm is still heavily dependent on search-related advertising.
Ironically, investors’ biggest worry is that Google will end【C18】______like Microsoft, which has【C19】______to find big new sources of【C20】______and profit to replace those from its two ageing ponies, the Windows operating system and the Office suite of business software. That explains why Google’s share price has stagnated.
